The other part of the municipality, the Bann Le Moine , legally belonged to the Duchy of Salm and thus to the Duchy of Lorraine , which fell to France in 1766. Until the French Revolution , the community was then in the Grand-gouvernement de Lorraine-et-Barrois . In the Thirty Years War the community was almost completely destroyed. Only a few residents survived. In 1712 the place had only 3 residents. There was destruction in the two world wars. During the First World War, German bombardment in 1914 led to severe destruction in the community. Further artillery attacks on both sides caused damage. From 1793 to 1801 the municipality was assigned to the Blâmont district. And from 1793 to 1801 and from 1879 to 2015 it was incorporated into the canton of Badouviller / Badonviller.
